Italy is famous for many things, Pizza, Pasta, the Coliseum and for gamers, an Italian plumber known as Mario.

New Super Mario Bro’s Wii is the latest game in the Mario series and sees a welcome return to the side scrolling platform fun that the classic and more recently DS version of the game brought to gamers, New power ups such as a propeller suit an Ice flower and the ability to ride Yoshi, join alongside the classic mushroom and flower power ups that everyone knows and loves. A new four player co-op game mode where players take on the roll of either Mario, Luigi or one of the Toadstools has been introduced for hours of fun with the whole family, as well as a versus mode where players try to prove who’s the best.

New Videogames For Christmas, Find the Best Price Videogames At Rocking Prices

505 GAMES FEELS THE RHYTHM WITH WE ROCK: DRUM KING FOR NINTENDO Wii
Become a Music Legend, Without the Need for Costly Instrument Peripherals
Milton Keynes – 505 Games is today pleased to reveal We Rock : Drum King (Wii), a brand new rhythm-action game for Nintendo Wii™, which sees you becoming the drummer in a band that’s on the road to global stardom. It’s due to rock out across Europe on 9 April 2009.

Unlike many rhythm games, to become a music legend in We Rock : Drum King you only require two Wii Remotes, rather than having to clutter your living room with potentially expensive instruments. The remotes become your virtual drumsticks as you beat your way through 30 awesome tunes, including Bloc Party’s Banquet and Born To Be Wild by Steppenwolf.

You start on the road to fame by creating your drummer and then joining a band, before performing in a range of increasingly spectacular venues – until you’re crowned the greatest rock band in the world.

Developed exclusively for the Nintendo Wii by DEL, We Rock: Drum King takes full advantage of the innovative motion-sensing capabilities of the console. The game is played by moving the remotes as if you’re ‘air drumming’. Different drums – including snare, toms, hi-hat and bass – are simulated by waving the Wii Remotes while pressing a different button.

Wannabe drummers know exactly when and what drum to hit thanks to coloured indicators that scroll down the screen in time to the tune. The difficulty can be scaled too, so that beginners can pick-up-and-rock-out, whereas experienced beat masters can crank up the challenge to 11.

We Rock : Drum King will be released exclusively for Nintendo Wii in Europe in 9  April 2009.

FEATURES:

* Wide range of drumming styles/music
* Ready to rock straight from the box – no need for costly peripherals
* Create your own avatar before hitting the road
* Single and multiplayer modes
* 30 awesome tracks from well known artists
* Difficulty scaled so beginners have fun but experts face a real rock challenge

Drum King (Wii)

There are some new items available in Microsoft Xbox 360 Live that you are going to need to know about.  First off is the division of Microsoft Xbox 360 Live into two separate types – silver and gold.  I am going to look at both of these Microsoft Xbox 360 Live services so that you can have a better understanding of which service to go with.

Why Was The Xbox 360 Live Game So Different?

I am by no means a hard core gamer, but I have been around the block so to speak.  I have played MMO’s, been in guilds and clans, done the whole FPS on line thing, but I can honestly say the most fun I had was playing an Xbox 360 live game.  It was not that the experience was really different than any of the other things; it was how the whole thing came together.

Microsoft Xbox 360 Live – Gold

The Gold service has many features that make it an great way to game online.  The amount of Microsoft Xbox 360 Live games is unbelievable. Your online avatar is displayed to the world.  Each account can set up a different “motto” which will be displayed to other gamers online.  In addition your account will keep a record of you achievements that you earn during game play.  You can also link this back to your Facebook account so that people will see updates of your achievements.   Each account has a unique username that is also displayed to all the other gamers.  As you play more and more you build up a reputation.  If players like playing with you they can vote on you in a positive light.  As this builds up you will find it easier and easier to get games.  In addition, it will become easier to avoid bad players or players with a bad attitude.

The next thing I noticed about the Xbox 360 live game was that you had to use a headset to play.  This was absolutely a god send as every on my team was able to communicate and strategize.  This made the games extremely intense and strategy was very important.  I also like the fact that you could talk smack before and after the matches with the other team.

Lastly it was how quick and easy it was to find a game.  Games went one after another after another and just chained on for the entire night.  By the end I had raised a couple levels, learned most of the maps, and was taking on stronger competition.  The experience was so immersive and fluid that I truly felt like I was in the game.  The outside world slipped away as I blasted my opposition, and got blasted in turn.  This was truly one of the most eye opening and fun gaming experiences I have ever had.  If you have not tried an Xbox 360 live game and are leery of consoles games, you should give a shot because you truly do not know what you are missing.
